Matthew’s connection = with the people of the Warddeken Indigenous Protected Area began over 10 ye= ars ago=2E He lived there for two years and returned as often as he could= =2E The story and traditional fire-control methods (pictured above, burning= off undergrowth) is one he’s always wanted to do: “This is a= story of Indigenous people using traditional practices and modern technolo= gy that is offering us a potential solution to deal with the climate crisis= , while at the same time giving these previously disenfranchised people the= opportunity to thrive and live a free life,” Matthew says=2E
He made three, two-week trips from his home in Sydney for this story=2E O= n his second trip, a COVID lockdown prevented him from flying, so he drove = 4,300 miles one way (yes, that's not a typo), so he wouldn’t miss ph= otographing the community’s annual walk through its ancestral lands= =2E For the third trip, he had to stay in COVID quarantine for two weeks in= a prison-like facility=2E

Like all of the damn good photographers = I’ve been lucky to work with all these years, Matthew’s passi= on, smarts, keen eye—and most importantly, dedication to the STORY&#= x2014;are the qualities that make him so special=2E
